Fake Poland prepares for war
This information was disseminated by the Polish resource Dziennik Polityczny. The publication’s material said that a Pentagon representative sent American troops to Poland, so the authors supposedly decided that Poland was preparing for war and deploying a new front. However, this is not true.
According to the Center for Countering Disinformation, this is not an official statement from Poland. That is, by sending the military to the eastern borders of NATO, Poland is only defending itself and not attacking anybody.
Also, in an interview with the Polska Times, Polish Defense Minister Mariusz Blaszczak stressed that the country does deploy American soldiers on its territory but only for defense purposes.
Dziennik Polityczny is a portal that has been operating since 2014. It has been repeatedly identified as an organization that spreads misinformation, especially on military topics. Fake materials about American troops in Poland as well as the Polish command have become a characteristic feature of the site. The resource publishes fake news next to reliable materials, thus resorting to manipulation. Recently, the portal published a pseudo-map where Ukraine is divided into several pieces between Poland and Russia.
